Poor little Krista. She was running around on Thursday during recess and smacked right into another child...The result (*see below)......
At noon when I picked her up she was escorted out by the principal (who is also her teacher). He said that she didn't even come to tell anyone it happened! She told me that she and Carla (her best friend) went to the bathroom to put a wet paper towel on it and it was fine. The teacher, of course said it would have been much better if she would have told someone earlier so it wouldn't have swelled up so much. They did put ice on it at school, but it was already pretty swollen by then.
She seems fine, although it does look pretty bad. This isn't her first black-eye either. When she was 13 months old she was jumping on the bed in Estonia (at Vanaema and Vanaisa's house) and hit her head on the corner of the bed. I'm attaching a photo of her at 13 months with her black eye as a baby. That time it was on her right eye, and this time it is on her left eye. Here's one from the day it happened, followed by one from today... It has changed a lot in color and looks worse today, but it is much less swollen. Poor Bug!
